CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the priority benefit of Chinese Patent Application No. 201710343390.6, filed on May 16, 2017 in the Chinese State Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.

FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of information processing, and in particular to analysis and comparison of multi-view vectors.

BACKGROUND

Extracted and used features in various pattern recognition technologies are generally intuitive and discrete features. For example, a shape feature and a texture feature of an object are discrete. That is, only the shape of the object may be considered without considering the texture of the object (a texture item is zero), or, only the texture of the object is considered without considering the shape of the object (a shape item is zero). For another example, a result waveform obtained by superimposing waveforms in frequency domain seems to be inseparable. However, a high-frequency component and a low-frequency component of the result waveform can be separated and exists independently. In other words, one component is zero with respect to another component. In this case, each of the independent features may be respectively modeled, and the obtained models are simply superimposed.

SUMMARY

It should be understood that this overview is not an exhaustive overview of the present disclosure. It is neither intended to determine a critical part or an important part of the present disclosure, nor to limit the scope of the present disclosure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

An exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure will be described hereinafter in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. For the purpose of conciseness and clarity, not all features of an embodiment are described in this specification. However, it should be understood that multiple decisions specific to the embodiment have to be made in a process of developing any such embodiment to realize a particular object of a developer, for example, conforming to those constraints related to a system and a business, and these constraints may change as the embodiments differs. Furthermore, it should also be understood that although the development work may be very complicated and time-consuming, for those skilled in the art benefiting from the present disclosure, such development work is only a routine task.

Here, it should also be noted that, in order to avoid obscuring the present disclosure due to unnecessary details, only a device structure and/or processing steps closely related to the solution according to the present disclosure are illustrated in the drawings, and other details having little relationship to the present disclosure are omitted.

The description below is in the following order:

1. Modeling of multi-view vector

2. Application of multi-view vector model

3. Extraction of multi-view vector

4. Multi-view vector processing device

5. Computing device for implementing device and method according to the present disclosure

1. Modeling of Multi-View Vector

As mentioned in the background, the intuitive and discrete features may be respectively modeled and then superimposed simply. However, there are still non-discrete features to be extracted and used. In this case, a modeling is performed only depending on features associated with the features to be extracted and used according to the conventional technologies. For example, in speech recognition, a large quantity of training can only be performed by taking recognition content as a training target for extracting various features, and it is impossible to eliminate effects caused by different persons. In this case, it takes a not short time for training and adaption when a speech recognition product is used by different persons. This is because the speech content and a vocal organ of a specific person are non-discrete. For example, in language content recognition, a certain sentence is necessarily said by a certain person, that is, a sentence can not exist independent of a person. In human identity recognition, a voiceprint is necessarily extracted from an utterance.

Similarly, an interleaving of language, age, sex, speech content and the identity of a person is further included, as well as an interleaving of age, sex, race and identity in an application associated with image recognition, and the like.

In other words, in the case that voice or image of a person is represented with one feature vector, the above factors must exist in the feature vector and the feature vector is called as “multi-view vector”. For example, the speech content, the language, age, sex, race and the like each are an non-discrete “view”, that is, there is necessarily a certain option for each view and the option can not be zero. Specifically, a sentence is necessarily said by person A, person B or . . . , and can not be said by “no body” (in this case, a robot is also a “person”, that is to say, the sentence is necessarily said by a certain entity). For voiceprint extraction, a person necessarily speaks and it is impossible for the person not to speak, that is, the view of speech content can not be zero.

FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 further illustrates non-discrete views and discrete views. FIG. 1 represents two views u and v which are non-discrete, that is, the two views always exist in an associated and non-discrete manner. The view u always includes a certain option such as u₁ or u₂, and can not be null or zero. The view v always includes a certain option such as v₁, v₂ or v₃ and can not be null or zero (of cause, the number of views of u or v is unnecessarily limited). A to-be-researched object or information x may be generated by a combined effect of the two views. For example, x_(11n) may be generated by u₁ and v₁ (n is a natural number representing a different sample), and the like.

In FIG. 2, view u and view v are discrete. It means that each of the views is possible to be null or zero while the other view may exist independently. In this case, a research object or information formed when the two views exist simultaneously may be actually represented as a sum of the two views. For example, an information sample x_(21n) generated by special selection u₂ of the view u and special selection v₁ of the view v may be represented as a sum of information x_(20n) and information x_(01n). The information x_(20n) is generated independently by u₂ and the information x_(01n) is generated independently by v₁.

Of course, the concepts of “discrete” and “non-discrete” herein should not be absolutized, and there may be some cases in which features are low entangled although they can not be absolutely discrete. In this case, whether the features are considered as discrete or non-discrete may depend on actual requirements.

The present disclosure targets to a multi-view vector containing information on multiple (relatively) non-discrete views. The multi-view vector may be acquired in any traditional manner. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, object or information to be processed (302) may be directly vectorized in any manner (304) to obtain a multi-view vector (306). For example, acquired voice data may be processed in the following way. The voice data is divided into signals with a frame length of 25 milliseconds and a frame offset of 10 milliseconds. A feature of 39 dimensions may be obtained by extracting 13-dimensional Meyer frequency cepstrum coefficients (MFCCs) and connecting the first order differences and second order differences of the coefficients. A vector of 1521 dimensions obtained by joining with the context, that is, totally 39 frames (left 25 frames, right 13 frames), is taken as the final feature with totally 1521 dimensions (39*39). The vector can serve as a processing object according to the technical solution of the present disclosure. Of course, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that, the voice data may be processed with other methods known in the art, which will not be described hereinafter. Meanwhile, of course, the vectorization process is not limited to speech data.

After the multi-view vector is obtained (306), a vector decomposition may be performed with the method according to the present disclosure (308) to perform a specific application (310). New solutions are also provided for a method for vectorization (304), a method for vector decomposition (308) (i.e., the modeling of multi-view vector) and the application (310), according to the present disclosure. Below, a new vector decomposition method according to the present disclosure, i.e., a multi-view vector modeling method, is firstly discussed. According to the present disclosure, a vector decomposition model is established or trained (508) for the multi-view vector (306) by applying the method according to the present disclosure, to obtain a vector decomposition model parameter (510). The vector decomposition (308) can be performed by using the model parameter (510). In an application aspect, the model parameter (510) can also be directly applied in an application (310), since it is unimportant whether there is an “apparent” vector decomposition (308) after the model parameter is obtained (510). In some models, the model parameter (510) is directly applied to a certain application of researched object information, that is, the object information is applied after being decomposed.

A multi-view vector processing method is provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. A multi-view vector x represents an object containing information on at least two non-discrete views. The method includes: a modeling step for establishing a model of the multi-view vector, where the model includes at least components of: a population mean μ of the multi-view vector, view component of each view of the multi-view vector and noise

; and a training step for obtaining the population mean μ, parameters of the view components, and parameters of the noise

, by using training data of the multi-view vector x. In the embodiment, the following model is established for the multi-view vector x, and a model parameter is obtained by training, thereby obtaining effects of view components of the multi-view vector x.

$\begin{matrix} {x = {\mu + {\sum\limits_{i}{Ci}} + \epsilon}} & (1) \end{matrix}$

In expression (1), Ci represents a view component of a view, and i represents a sequence number of the view.

It is appreciated by the inventor that, the population mean may also be allocated to the view component. Therefore, in an embodiment, the population mean μ is set as zero, and the model may change to be:

$\begin{matrix} {x = {{\sum\limits_{i}{Ci}} + \epsilon}} & (2) \end{matrix}$

In addition, the view component Ci may be considered as a product of a space basis S_(i) corresponding to the view and a coefficient u_(i) specially selected for the view, where i represents the sequence number of the view. That is,

$\begin{matrix} {x = {\mu + {\sum\limits_{i}{S_{i}u_{i}}} + \epsilon}} & (3) \end{matrix}$

It may be considered that the noise meets a Gauss distribution taking a diagonal matrix Σ as a covariance.

The training step may include: obtaining the population mean μ, space base S_(i) of the views, and the Σ, based on the training data by using an expectation-maximization algorithm. Specifically, mean expected values of all samples for x with respect to the special selections for the view components and expected values related to covariance with respect to the special selections for the view components can be calculated based on μ, S_(i) and Σ, and μ, S_(i) and Σ are recalculated based on the expected values until they converge.

For convenience of description, only two views are taken as an example. For example, a voiceprint (i.e., multi-view vector) extracted from a voice containing two views of speaker and text is taken as an example. In a case that training data includes I speakers, J types of texts, and each type of text for each speaker corresponds to H_(ij) voice segments. A multi-view voiceprint corresponding to a k-th voice segment for a j-th type of text of an i-th speaker is represented as x_(ijk), then expression (3) may be represented as:

x _(ijk) =μ+Su _(i) +Tv _(j)+ϵ_(ijk)  (4)

In expression (4), μ represents an average value of all x_(ijk), that is, population mean. S and T respectively represent a space basis of the speaker view and a space basis of the text view. A coefficient corresponding to an i-th selection for the view corresponding to S is u_(i), and a coefficient corresponding to a j-th selection for the view corresponding to T is ϵ_(ijk) represents a noise signal (meeting the Gauss distribution taking a diagonal matrix Σ as a covariance). The parameter k represents a k-th sample under the above selections. It is assumed θ={μ, S, T, Σ}, including all parameters in the multi-view vector model, and it is assumed B=[S T] for simplifying the description below. It is assumed the parameters in the model meet the following distribution:

P(x _(ijk) ∥u _(i) ,v _(j),θ)=

(x _(ijk) |μ+Su _(i) +Tv _(j),Σ),

P(u _(i))=

(u _(i)|0,I),

P(v _(j))=

(v _(j)|0,I),  (5)

In expression (5),

(x|μ,Σ) represents a normal distribution with a mean of μ and a variance of Σ. That is to say, in the case of the parameter θ and the special selections u_(i) and v_(j) for the two views S and T, a distribution of the multi-view vector x_(ijk) is a normal distribution with a mean of μ+Su_(i)+Tv_(j) and a variance of Σ, and each of u_(i) and v_(j) is a normal distribution with a mean of 0 and a variance of unit matrix I.

A basic process of the aforementioned maximum expected value algorithm is as follows.

Firstly, the parameter θ is initiated randomly as θ={μ, S, T, Σ}.

Then, for all of the I speakers and J types of texts in the training data, and the multi-view vector (voiceprint) X={x_(ijk): i=1, . . . , I; j=1, . . . , J; k=1, . . . , H_(ij)} of the H_(ij) voice segments corresponding to each speaker for each type of text, it is calculated,

$\begin{matrix} {\mspace{79mu} {{E_{{ZX},\theta_{t}}\left\{ \begin{bmatrix} u_{i} \\ v_{j} \end{bmatrix} \right\}} = {{E_{{ZX},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack z_{ij} \right\rbrack} = {\left( {I + {B^{T}{\sum^{- 1}B}}} \right)^{- 1}B^{T}{\underset{k = 1}{\sum\limits^{H_{ij}}}\left( {x_{ijk} - \mu} \right)}}}}} & (6) \\ {\mspace{79mu} {and}} & \; \\ {{E_{{ZX},\theta_{t}}\left\{ \begin{bmatrix} {u_{i}u_{i}^{T}} & {u_{i}v_{j}^{T}} \\ {v_{j}v_{i}^{T}} & {v_{j}v_{j}^{T}} \end{bmatrix} \right\}} = {{E_{{ZX},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack {z_{ij}z_{ij}^{T}} \right\rbrack} = {\left( {I + {B^{T}{\sum^{- 1}B}}} \right)^{- 1} + {{E_{{ZX},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack z_{ij} \right\rbrack}{{E_{{ZX},\theta_{i}}\left\lbrack z_{ij} \right\rbrack}^{T}.}}}}} & (7) \end{matrix}$

Expression (6) represents mean expected values of all samples of X, and expression (7) represents an expected value, related to covariance, of the special selection for a view component of a view. θ_(t) represents a parameter θ in a t-th step. In an initial cycle, that is, t=1, θ_(t) is an arbitrarily selected initial value as described in the above. In the expressions, Z={z_(ij): i=1, . . . , I; j=1, . . . , J},

${z_{ij} = \begin{bmatrix} u_{i} \\ v_{j} \end{bmatrix}},$

U represents a set of variables u_(i), V represents a set of variables v_(j), and a relationship between Z, U and V may be represented as a multiplication, x, relationship, that is, Z=U×V.

Next, new parameter values are calculated based on the calculated expected value.

$\begin{matrix} {S = {\begin{Bmatrix} {{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{I}{\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{J}{\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{H_{ijk}}{\left( {x_{ijk} - \mu} \right){E_{{U|X},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack u_{i} \right\rbrack}^{T}}}}} -} \\ {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{I}{\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{J}{\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{H_{ijk}}{{TE}_{U,{V|X},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack {v_{j}u_{i}^{T}} \right\rbrack}}}} \end{Bmatrix}{\left\{ {E_{{U|X},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack {u_{i}u_{i}^{T}} \right\rbrack} \right\}^{- 1}.}}} & (8) \\ {T = {\begin{Bmatrix} {{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{I}{\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{J}{\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{H_{ijk}}{\left( {x_{ijk} - \mu} \right){E_{{V|X},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack v_{j} \right\rbrack}^{T}}}}} -} \\ {\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{I}{\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{J}{\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{H_{ijk}}{{SE}_{U,{V|X},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack {u_{i}v_{j}^{T}} \right\rbrack}}}} \end{Bmatrix}\left\{ {E_{{V|X},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack {v_{j}v_{j}^{T}} \right\rbrack} \right\}^{- 1}}} & (9) \\ {\Sigma = {\frac{1}{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{I}{\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{J}\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{H_{ijk}}}}{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{I}{\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{J}{\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{H_{ijk}}{\begin{Bmatrix} {{\left( {x_{ijk} - \mu} \right)\left( {x_{ijk} - \mu} \right)^{T}} -} \\ \begin{matrix} \left( {x_{ijk} - \mu} \right) \\ \begin{bmatrix} {{{E_{{U|X},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack u_{i} \right\rbrack}^{T}S^{T}} +} \\ {{E_{{V|X},\theta_{t}}\left\lbrack v_{i} \right\rbrack}^{T}T^{T}} \end{bmatrix} \end{matrix} \end{Bmatrix}.}}}}}} & (10) \\ {\mu = {\frac{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{I}{\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{J}{\sum\limits_{k = 1}^{H_{ijk}}x_{ijk}}}}{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{I}{\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{J}{\sum\limits_{h = 1}^{H_{ijk}}1}}}.}} & (11) \end{matrix}$

Then, expected values of expression (6) and (7) are calculated with the new parameters, a cycle is performed until the expected values converge, and it is obtained θ={μ, S, T, Σ}. View components of the views are obtained once the model parameters are obtained:

$\begin{matrix} {\begin{bmatrix} u_{i} \\ v_{j} \end{bmatrix} = {\left( {I + {B^{T}\Sigma^{- 1}B}} \right)^{- 1}B^{T}{\Sigma^{- 1}\left( {x_{ijk} - \mu} \right)}}} & (12) \end{matrix}$

2. Application of Multi-View Vector Model

The modeling of multi-view vector according to the present disclosure may be applied to a vector representing any information, for example, a vector representing image or voice. A multi-view vector representing voice may be referred to as a voiceprint. Voiceprint confirmation has been widely applied in many fields, including smart user interface, homeland security, telephone banking and the like. Based on a multi-view voiceprint modeling method according to the present disclosure, a voiceprint recognition method is further provided. That is to say, a likelihood representing whether or not two multi-view voiceprints belong to a same speaker and a same type of text is calculated, and then further decision is made with the likelihood.

In the aforementioned solutions, the multi-view vector x_(ijk) may represent a voiceprint corresponding to a k-th sample of a j-th type of text by an i-th speaker, u_(i) represents a coefficient of the i-th speaker, and v_(j) represents a coefficient of the j-th type of text. In this case, in an embodiment, a likelihood representing that at least one view component is the same in two multi-view vectors and a likelihood representing that the at least one view component is different in the two multi-view vectors are calculated by using the population mean μ, the parameters of the view components and the parameters of the noise

, and it is determined whether the at least one view component is the same in the two multi-view vectors based on the likelihoods. For example, the above method may be used for determining whether the speaker is the same, i.e., for identity recognition, or may be used for determining whether the speech content is the same, i.e., for voice recognition or password authentication. In addition, the method may be used for more accurate voiceprint recognition, for example, it is required a specific speaker to speak specific content.

Multi-view vector model may be used based on the above different scenarios with model parameters obtained in the above.

FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram showing a scenario in which it is determined whether two views are both the same. As an example but not intended to limiting, for example, it is determined whether voiceprints each containing two view features of speaker and speech content are completely the same. FIG. 5 corresponds to expression (4). In FIG. 5, u_(i) and u₂ represent special selections for the speaker view, and v₁ and v₂ represent special selections for the speech content view, x represents various combined language samples, and e represents a final noise item in expression (4). In this case, a left-side mode M₀ represents all cases in which one or both two of the speaker and the speech content in four voice segments are different. A right-side mode M₁ represents cases in which both of the speaker and the speech content in two voice segments are the same.

In this case, it is calculated a likelihood representing whether two voiceprint segments (target voiceprint x_(s) and test voiceprint x_(t)) belong to the four cases in mode M₀, that is, a likelihood B representing that the two voiceprint segments do not belong to a same speaker or are not a same type of text as follows.

$\begin{matrix} \begin{matrix} {{P\left( {x_{t},\left. x_{s} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{0} \right.} \right)} = {{P\left( {x_{111},\left. x_{121} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{0} \right.} \right)} + {P\left( {x_{111},\left. x_{211} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{0} \right.} \right)} +}} \\ {{{P\left( {x_{111},\left. x_{221} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{0} \right.} \right)} + {P\left( {x_{121},\left. x_{211} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{0} \right.} \right)} +}} \\ {{{P\left( {x_{211},\left. x_{221} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{0} \right.} \right)} + {P\left( {x_{211},\left. x_{221} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{0} \right.} \right)}}} \\ {= {\int{\int{\int{\int\left( {P_{x_{111}},x_{121},u_{1},v_{1},v_{2},z_{111},z_{121}} \right)}}}}} \\ {{{{du}_{1}{dv}_{1}{dv}_{2}{dz}_{111}{dz}_{121}} + \ldots}} \\ {= {{\begin{pmatrix} {\left. \begin{bmatrix} x_{t} \\ x_{s} \end{bmatrix} \middle| \begin{bmatrix} \mu \\ \mu \end{bmatrix} \right.,} \\ \begin{bmatrix} {{2{SS}^{T}} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma} & {{2{SS}^{T}} + {TT}^{T}} \\ {{2{SS}^{T}} + {TT}^{T}} & {{2{SS}^{T}} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma} \end{bmatrix} \end{pmatrix}} +}} \\ {{{\begin{pmatrix} {\left. \begin{bmatrix} x_{t} \\ x_{s} \end{bmatrix} \middle| \begin{bmatrix} \mu \\ \mu \end{bmatrix} \right.,} \\ \begin{bmatrix} {{SS}^{T} + {2{TT}^{T}} + \Sigma} & {{SS}^{T} + {2{TT}^{T}}} \\ {{SS}^{T} + {2{TT}^{T}}} & {{SS}^{T} + {2{TT}^{T}} + \Sigma} \end{bmatrix} \end{pmatrix}} +}} \\ {{\left( {\left. x_{t} \middle| \mu \right.,{{SS}^{T} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma}} \right)}} \\ {{\left( {\left. x_{s} \middle| \mu \right.,{{SS}^{T} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma}} \right)}} \end{matrix} & (13) \end{matrix}$

Moreover, it is calculated a likelihood representing whether two voiceprint segments (target voiceprint x_(s) and test voiceprint x_(t)) belong to the cases in mode M₁, i.e., a likelihood A representing whether the two voiceprint segments belong to a same speaker and a same type of text as follows.

$\begin{matrix} \begin{matrix} {{P\left( {x_{t},\left. x_{s} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{1} \right.} \right)} = {\int{\int{\int{\int{P\left( {x_{111},x_{112},u_{1},v_{1},z_{111},z_{112}} \right)}}}}}} \\ {{{du}_{1}{dv}_{1}{dz}_{111}{dz}_{112}}} \\ {= {\begin{pmatrix} {\left. \begin{bmatrix} x_{t} \\ x_{s} \end{bmatrix} \middle| \begin{bmatrix} \mu \\ \mu \end{bmatrix} \right.,} \\ \begin{bmatrix} {{SS}^{T} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma} & {{SS}^{T} + {TT}^{T}} \\ {{SS}^{T} + {TT}^{T}} & {{SS}^{T} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma} \end{bmatrix} \end{pmatrix}}} \end{matrix} & (14) \end{matrix}$

If A>B, the two voiceprint segments belong to the same speaker and the same type of text. If A<B, then the two voiceprint segments do not belong to the same speaker or do not belong to the same type of text.

Probabilities that the two multi-view vectors belong to the cases may be further calculated based on the likelihood, and it is determined whether both of the two view components of the two multi-view vectors are the same or at least one view component is different based on the probabilities. For example,

$\begin{matrix} {{{P\left( {\left. \mathcal{M}_{q} \middle| x_{t} \right.,x_{s}} \right)} = \frac{{P\left( {x_{t},\left. x_{s} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{q} \right.} \right)}{P\left( \mathcal{M}_{q} \right)}}{\begin{matrix} {{{P\left( {x_{t},\left. x_{s} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{0} \right.} \right)}{P\left( \mathcal{M}_{0} \right)}} +} \\ {{P\left( {x_{t},\left. x_{s} \middle| \mathcal{M}_{1} \right.} \right)}{P\left( \mathcal{M}_{1} \right)}} \end{matrix}}},{q = 0},1} & (15) \end{matrix}$

If P(

₁|x_(t),x_(s))≥P(

₀|x_(t),x_(s)), that is, a probability representing that x_(s) and x_(t) belong to mode M₁ is greater than a probability representing that x_(s) and x_(t) belong to mode M₀, then the two voiceprint segments are completely the same, that is, the two voiceprint segments are from the same speaker and have the same content.

As described in the above, with the determined multi-view vector model parameters, the likelihood representing that one of two view components is the same in two multi-view vectors and the likelihood representing that the one of two view components is different in the two multi-view vectors may be calculated, and whether the one view component is the same in the two multi-view vectors is determined based on the likelihoods. In addition, the probability representing that the two multi-view vectors belong to the cases may be further calculated with the likelihoods, and it is determined whether the one view component is the same based on the probability.

A likelihood representing that the view component u_(i) is the same, A=

$\begin{matrix} {\begin{pmatrix} {\left. \begin{bmatrix} x_{t} \\ x_{s} \end{bmatrix} \middle| \begin{bmatrix} \mu \\ \mu \end{bmatrix} \right.,} \\ \begin{bmatrix} {{2{SS}^{T}} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma} & {{2{SS}^{T}} + {TT}^{T}} \\ {{2{SS}^{T}} + {TT}^{T}} & {{2{SS}^{T}} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma} \end{bmatrix} \end{pmatrix}} & (16) \end{matrix}$

$\begin{matrix} {= {{\left( {\left. \begin{bmatrix} x_{t} \\ x_{s} \end{bmatrix} \middle| \begin{bmatrix} \mu \\ \mu \end{bmatrix} \right.,\begin{bmatrix} {{SS}^{T} + {2{TT}^{T}} + \Sigma} & {{SS}^{T} + {2{TT}^{T}}} \\ {{SS}^{T} + {2{TT}^{T}}} & {{SS}^{T} + {2{TT}^{T}} + \Sigma} \end{bmatrix}} \right)} + {{\left( {\left. x_{t} \middle| \mu \right.,{{SS}^{T} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma}} \right)}{\left( {\left. x_{s} \middle| \mu \right.,{{SS}^{T} + {TT}^{T} + \Sigma}} \right)}}}} & (17) \end{matrix}$

The view component u_(i) is the same if A>B, and the view component u_(i) is different if A<B. The calculation of likelihoods for the view component v_(j) is similar to The calculation of likelihoods for the view component u_(i).

3. Extraction of Multi-View Vector

The multi-view vector may be obtained by directly vectorizing a to-be-represented object. As an example but not intended to limiting, for example, acquired voice data may be processed in the following way, to obtain one of examples of multi-view vector, voiceprint. A voiceprint may be extracted with for example the aforementioned method of extracting MFCCs. Of course, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that, the voice data may be processed with other methods known in the art, which are not described hereinafter.

When being extracted directly from an object containing information on multiple non-discrete views, a multi-view vector can entirely represent the object. Then, the multi-view vector is modeled based on a large quantity of object samples with a modeling method according to the present disclosure, to reflect effects on the multi-view vector by features of different views. In this case, a model obtained by the modeling can be applied to a test object to recognize or use features of one or more views of the test object.

That is to say, for example, in the case that the feature of an object is affected by non-discrete view A and view B, it is not sought according to the present disclosure to directly extract an A-view feature from the object which is not affected by the view B as much as possible, or to directly extract a B-view feature from the object which is not affected by the view A as much as possible, or to mark samples with the view A and view B to obtain classifiers respectively for view A and view B by training. Reversely, it is accepted by the present disclosure a fact of the non-discrete view A and view B in the extraction of features of the object, to extract the features of the objects together and form a multi-view vector. Then, effects by the view A and view B are measured with the modeling method according to the present disclosure.

However, in some cases, an object without any processing may be affected by various factors, some of these factors are relatively discrete and some are relatively non-discrete. In this case, if other relatively discrete views are included, calculation amount for modeling and vector decomposition may be unnecessarily increased, and it may become impossible to solve an issue due to excessive increase of variables. In this case, it may be considered to firstly separate relatively non-discrete views from the multi-view vector at the extraction of multi-view vector.

In a method, a feature vector obtained by directly vectorizing an object is processed with a classifier, to obtain a multi-view vector in which relatively discrete views are excluded and relatively non-discrete views are reserved. In other words, a discreteness between the excluded views and the multiple views of the multi-view vector is higher than a discreteness between the multiple views of the multi-view vectors. It should be noted that, the relatively discrete and relatively non-discrete are both relative concepts, and are not absolute “discrete” and “non-discrete”. Even in some cases, for example, in the case of too many views, all of the views may be non-discrete. In this case, it is determined depending on a selection of a user to exclude which views and reserve which views.

As shown in FIG. 6A, the classifier may be obtained by training in the following way. Firstly, features of multiple non-discrete views of a training sample, i.e., research object (302) are marked simultaneously (404). A discreteness between unmarked views and the marked views may be higher than a discreteness between the marked views. Then, the classifier is trained by using the marked training samples (406), to obtain a trained classifier (408).

The above classifier may be a neural network. In a training phase, the training samples are marked, for example, interested views are marked. For instance, interested age and sex may be marked for an image of people. The neural network is trained with these marked image samples. In this way, a multi-view vector, of the image, containing two views of age and sex can be obtained by processing a test image with the trained neural network. In addition, a multi-view vector may be extracted for a voice. Depending on marked feature views of samples in training the neural network, such as age, sex, race, personal identity, language and voice content, a multi-view vector obtained by processing test voice samples with the trained neural network includes these selected features of the views.

FIG. 6B shows an entire structure from training of classifier to multi-view vector decomposition. In a classifier training phase, training samples are marked with non-discrete views S3 and S4 instead of discrete views S1 and S2, and a training sample set 410 is obtained to train a classifier 408. Test samples in a test sample set 412 is processed by the classifier 408 to obtain a multi-view vector set 414 containing information on the view S3 and view S4. A process that a multi-view vector decomposition model is trained based on vectors in the multi-view vector set 414 is not shown in FIG. 6B. A multi-view vector may be decomposed based on the model. For example, vector x1 and vector x2 (the vectors x1 and x2 may be from the multi-view vector set 414 or may be multi-view vectors newly extracted by the classifier 408 in an actual application) may be decomposed into components of the view S3 and view S4. Such decomposition for view components may be apparent, for example, a certain view component or each view component needs to be obtained for some application. The decomposition for view components may be implicit, for example, in the embodiment of voiceprint comparison described herein, although the voiceprint is not decomposed apparently, it is actually decomposed in the calculations of a likelihood representing that the view is the same in the voiceprints and the likelihood representing that the view is different in the voiceprints.

In this case, the device may be a voiceprint confirmation device for confirming whether a test voiceprint is completely the same as a target voiceprint, that is, whether the two view components (speaker and speech content) are completely the same.
